Here are seven things Walling talked about in his speech:

3: The number of months Walling hopes it takes him and city council to recommend a five-year strategic plan and a two-year budget to Emergency Manager Darnell Earley.

44: The number of days before the city begins using the Flint River for drinking water because Detroit will terminate its nearly 50-year-old contract for supplying Flint with water. Flint will use river water until the Karegnondi Water Authority pipeline is built over the next three years.

51: Individuals without a high school diploma who volunteer have a 51 percent higher chance of finding work than those who don’t volunteer.

4,905: That’s the number of created and retained jobs within the city over the last four-plus years, Walling said.

20,000: The number of vacant lots in the city Walling hopes volunteers will help take care of by mowing the grass, cleaning them and doing other maintenance.

$70 million: The amount of money Walling says it will take to knock down nearly 6,000 blighted commercial and residential structures.

Unlimited: The number of large items, bagged litter and bundled branches and bagged lawn debris residents can put out at the curb during different times in May as part of Flint’s “Love Your City” initiative.
